Is this warm enough for winter?

It is a light down jacket, so it works for cool fall and mild winter days, especially layered. For freezing temperatures, choose a heavier parka or add a midlayer.

How does it fit compared with a puffer?

It runs slimmer than a standard puffer, with a tailored cut through the body and shoulders. Size up if you plan to wear a thick sweater underneath.

The mixed-media panels resist light wind and drizzle, but the quilted down sections are not waterproof. Wear a shell over it in steady rain.

How should I clean it?

Follow the care label: usually a gentle wash with down detergent and tumble dry low with dryer balls to redistribute the fill. Avoid dry cleaning unless the label allows it.

Is it worth it over a technical down jacket?

It trades some weather protection for a sharper, more fashion-forward look and better hardware. If you need serious insulation or waterproofing, a technical brand gives more for the money.
